“Jigga Jigga like Jay Z, Jig is up.” The “Jigga” is used to reference ‘Renegade’ by Em and Jay (where Em literally makes the same sound), and “the jig is up” is the opening line to ‘Renegade’ by Styx.

The rest of the verse is subliminal af on so many levels.
Check this verse from Hov on Kanye’s ‘Never let me down’.
“Seen the rovers roll up wit ribbons. I seen them REPO’D, resold then re-driven. So when I reload, he holds number one position. When you hot I’m hot. And when your FEET cold, mines is sizzlin’.” [Here Jay uses the Rover as a metaphor for the rise, fall, sometimes re-ascension, and sometimes stolen hustle in the rap game]
